rawness ?? you mean will i miss replacing 3rd gear in a evo trans ... nope i sure wont .. that and expensive clutches .. I went threw 10k in trans parts in the evo in one month ..
Im no way trying to bash the evo but it wasn't made for 800hp and then daily drive .. I had a blast and was a very fun car. But to tell you the truth i would not build another one . I had a decision to build the evo again or go with another car. I decided to try another platform.

congrats. I have been doing some research on nagtroc on GTR's and it's amazing what some of the maintenance and modifications cost but it's basically a super car on a budget. I just need my condo to sell for a lot and I get a good job when I relocate in January before I know what I'm getting. Enjoy!

Now THAT'S an upgrade! Congrats. I see one just about every day on my commute. The driver is a tie wearing, business man, but I'm sure he knows how to let it loose.

congrats on the purchase !!! looks damn nice, i myself couldnt spend that much money on a used nissan.... i realize its a GTR with its crazy HP, but for the money a used one goes for someone said between 50 to 60 grand you might as well have looked into a new M3 or possibly porsche... either way congrats and enjoy her.
